Runey, a minor suggestion toward the game page here: around where you say that pregnancy is a planned theme, it might help, at least to some small amount, if you add a note or something saying that that content won't be added until around the end of the game.

Might stop a handful of people from asking when it'll be added, as they'll be able to just spot the information above.

(1 edit)

they’ll be able to just spot the information above.

That may not help much. See the number of questions on this forum on how to play on Android, and that info is quite prominently exposed on this page.

I addressed that very thing in my comment. The key being that it might prevent a handful of people from needing to ask. In no way am I expecting it to prevent asking entirely, as some people just refuse to look for information.

This web page is already very long. The itch system maybe does not allow page of contents or other ways to organize it, and there may be many issues to add.

Another way might be adding Frequently Asked Questions to the Wiki. If the wiki does get FAQ, it should be divided in non-spoiler and may contain spoilers sections.

Discord has FAQ channel, but it seems to contain only installation and update information.

That's a fine recommendation as well, I think. Adding it to the wiki's FAQ could help a lot, but it'd also help, in some small way, to put it here on the main page.

For one, I'm sure not everyone is even aware of the wiki, and if they are there's no telling whether they've been there before. I've been following the game for years and I've not once visited the wiki. Secondly, with it being on the main page, likely directly by the 'planned theme' it'd be right near where people would see that pregnancy is a planned theme; as I'm sure there are a number of people that read through the page, see that, and then ask about when it'll be added (or if it's already been added).

Just to reiterate, I do think it'd be a grand idea to add a comment about it in the FAQ on the wiki, but also to the direct game page here - where people will be able to find it a touch more directly. Even if it won't prevent many people, it just needs to help some.

I failed halfway through the download on my Android device, and I tried it several times. 

 

What happens when you try to download? Surely there is some error or info message.

Is there space for the 12 GB download on the device?

(1 edit)

Started playing this game about 3 to 4  years ago just wanted  to play it for sexual whatever. Then I got real into the writing once the  android started going  somewhere. Thanks for  the good  times runey. I appreciate you taking time to actually put effort in your creation although  its a little stunted do to the nature of a porn game.  No hate I  mean you just have  to write around  the sex which is fun in itself and sometimes adds to the writing.

(+2)

There really is a pervasive misunderstanding about the game and its classification. It really isn't a porn game, by nature, it's an adult visual novel with a high amount of sexual elements. If anything, it's a bit of a minor difference... but still a difference.

I couldn't downloaded because it said I didn't have permission. Why did that happened?

(-1)

Because you didn't not have permission to not do that.

To get useful answers you need to provide more information.

What are you downloading and from where?

What platform, Linux, Android, Mac, Windows?

What exactly is the message when download fails? Copy and paste it or show screenshot.

I was trying the most recent PC version of this game and about halfway through it stopped and the message that showed up in the Download list was 4426675-archive-default.xml and beneath it, it says couldn't download - no permission

(1 edit)

Are you sure there is free space on the device for the download? It is 12 GBytes.

That message seems like coming from your PC, not a problem with the file server you download from. So examine your PC and the directory where the download goes.

You still have not revealed where you are downloading from. The Itch.io site or the mirror?

(1 edit)

I have plenty of space on my Android device, but it stops in the middle of a download and I need to start over

It shows waiting for a data connection

this game dont have chinese

有中文,在主菜单——选项——语言里选

(+1)(-1)

Hii I cant download it somehow after 12 gigs the download stops and it says Http Error 403 anyone has a solution?

Are you downloading from the Itch.io links on this page?

Which link?

The download should work. Make sure there is free space on disk.

Try downloading again, I think download should continue where it was stopped.

If you need more help, provide more information to help debug the problem.

How do I play the game on Android?

Read on this page the instructions about “How to play on Android”.

(-1)

Runey, are we going to see Autumn go through with the idea of anal?

(+2)

Of course

(+1)

I really like seeing Autumn doing everything but vaginal sex. I also would love seeing her with a laptop looking at porn and someone walks in her room while she is browsing, slams the laptop shut, and she shouts "Nothing! Just...looking for...potato chips on...Amazon. That's right, Amazon."

(+5)

I created an account just to say that never have I ever thought that a hentai game would make me this emotional.

(+1)

I'm glad you like it :)

(+2)

Harem Hotel takes a lot of people by surprise in a great way. For me I saw screenshots and was like I'll give it a try, then saw a tag for the game "slave" and thought "that's odd, I am sure they mean BDSM" and just downloaded and played it. First few minutes I am beside myself, "it wasn't a typo". Thought about stopping but am so glad I didn't. This game makes you feel the emotions and struggles the girls have. Runey is a master storyteller.

(+1)

When will the pregnancy feature be included?

Developer has previously stated at the very end of the game. It may be several years before the game is completed and that feature is added to the story.

You can search old discussions about this very same topic.

(4 edits) (+2)

Exactly, and while I would love to see pregnancy content asap, this game is one of my favorites and I am far from wanting to see it be finished. We are reaching 0.19, well I say we use the rest of the 81 numbers (0.19 -1.00), as well, before we get a stable 1.00 I mean Autumn is just being told about anal. There is a long way to go.

(1 edit) (+1)

I never thought I would be this invested in the story of an elf or an android lol. I look forward to seeing where it all leads for them and I swear, IF YOU HURT ON HAIR ON THEIR HEAD!!!

haha, it's great work. I'll have to start a fresh save on the update now that I have the hang of how the progression mechanics work. Can't wait to be in a place where I can donate, I can see that this has been a long project and a lot of soul has been put into the storytelling and universe. 

(1 edit)

Thank you so much :)

Hi Runey, loving the game so far and I especially love how responsive you are with your community and how you take feedback and bug reports to heart. :)

I have a question, I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but when you're at the winter cabin with Felicity, Emma, and Ashley, when you're all naked in the hot springs talking, Felicity and Emma mention a time that they were having a massage with Maria. They talk about how it was dark and they were naked and one of them (either Felicity or Emma that is) accidentally slipped a finger inside Maria. Only, this scene didn't happen for me. Is this a scene in the game and I missed it, or is it a bug that they're saying this when it hasn't happened yet, or is it something that happened behind the scenes to the characters and the player just doesn't get to see?

I should add I'm playing version 0.18.2, I haven't updated the game in awhile so I don't know if you've already addressed this in a more recent release if there has been one

(1 edit) (+1)

Only, this scene didn’t happen for me. Is this a scene in the game and I missed it,

They talk about things that happened in the past. That time was before the story in the game starts.

in a more recent release if there has been one

There has not been one yet. The 0.19 version is only beta, although it is available on Patreon for supporters.

(+1)

They're talking about a time before you met them.

Ah okay, that wasn't clear to me. Thanks!

i see theres other languages in the options, but only english, spanish and chinese are available. is there a way to get the other ones?

(1 edit)

Help the translators to complete the translations to those languages, then they will be available in the next version.

Greyed out items mean they are unavailable.

(+4)

How is this free!? Hotel Harem is already one of the best AVNs ever. My heartstrings successfully pulled lol I only just discovered this recently so thank you Runey.

(+3)

Thank you so much! <3 I'm only able to offer it for free through the support of tips :)

question just lost all my saves after updating how can i fix

(+2)

How did you do the update?

From which version to which version?

What platform, Windows, Android, Linux, Mac?

How have you determined you have lost the save files?

Just have a cheat code that puts players to the newest update so that they don't have to do the story over again

that puts players to the newest update

That would lose the names given to the hotel, android and what girls call the MC.

The girls have accumulated stats, what would happen to those?

(1 edit) (+1)

About that idea for codes, there might be codes that already exist. All you need to do is purchase a Patreon membership with Runey at Runey | Creating Harem Hotel | Patreon and to get access to these codes you just need to spend the very low price of $5 every month

These codes do exist.

I downloaded the game on my Mac but it wont seem to open, I made sure to download the Mac version but it just won't open

Did the download complete without errors?

I have used a Mac computer, but that was a log time ago. So I do not know what might be the problem now.

You could try Internet Search engines, with

install harem hotel on Mac

or

install harem hotel on Mac site:youtube.com

Strange, I don't have a mac myself. But if I had to guess, maybe your anti virus falsely flagged the file.

 This game is a zip file, so it doesn't work on Android. What should I do? 

Read instructions above, under the heading “How to play on Android”.

Zippidy-do, here is a screenshot for you.

Hello Runey, I'm a huge fan of this project, you are doing an amazing job and I love these girls so much. So I wanted to respectfully request your permission/blessing to have a custom companion doll of Lin made?

Go for it! I've been trying to offer plushies myself, but I can't find any good places to manufacture them upon order.

(1 edit)

Hooray, thank you so much! Having a custom doll made is expensive so I have to save up for it, but, would you be willing to send me any updated face images for the artist?

(2 edits)

Having chibi plushies of the girls would be very cute. If they looked like your stickers then that would be sweet.

(+1)

Love the game, just wanted to let you know that if you go long enough without continuing the main story you start getting the "i should really consider buying sylvia prompt" even when you havent done the elf orgy thing with the drow and such

(+1)

Perhaps it's a bit impolite, but I really want to ask when is the expected update date for 0.19? I can't wait to play this excellent game anymore

(1 edit)

New version is published when it is ready. This has been the policy since the beginning.

Follow the development on Patreon, the beta is already released to supporters.

You can also read old discussions on this channel, release date is discussed weekly if not daily.

Me gustaría probar el juego pero el archivo al pesar 12GB no me permite descargarlo, me preguntó si hay un método alternativo para descargar solo la versión que ocupo (Android)

(1 edit)

The Android version is 12 Gigabytes.

There is no smaller version for Android, but I think there used to be several versions ago a lower quality images version for Android, which was smaller but since even that got bigger than 4 GB even that could no longer be installed on Android as normal Android APK.

Honestly, if the game was split into multiple parts on Android, I would accept it. All it would need is once you start the "part 2" you input the trait number amount each girl was at in the previous part. Once you put in the main hotel girl's stats, you can hit start, enter your character's name, and begin part 2. And so on if needed. It can be three 4GB files or four 3GB files.

(1 edit) (-2)

Well Runey, here is an update about my status. I have been made a official tester for the dev I told you about. I currently oversee the android version of the game. Anytime a issue comes up involving the android version, I have to try to prove or disprove the bug being reported. I thought it would be stressful and tiresome, but I really feel happy doing it, partially because I was already reporting most android bugs to the dev. I even got a official title in the discord channel saying Chief Android Tester

(-1)

Here's a query, friend: how does this relate to Harem Hotel or Runey?

Yes, you're addressing him, but this doesn't relate to him or his work. I get your enthusiasm, but there has to be a better place to do this, hmm?

(1 edit)

I love the work Runey does. I recently posted that I had been talking to different game devs about how I enjoy the games they made. Only two responded back. Through these interactions I gained the courage to offer my ideas to them. Runey didn't seem interested but still talked to me and the other dev actually loved my ideas. Runey was the first game dev to respond back to me. Re-energized I kept helping the other dev and now take on the mobile/android bug section for them. So yes, it does relate to Runey.

(+1)

I'm aware it was brought up before, as with that time I am equally as confused at your mentioning it here, under this game. If it were in a more generalized chat locale, like, say, Discord, then that'd be totally understandable. Saying it relates to Runey because he replied to you is rather a stretch.

I'm glad you're enthusiastic about your new position, I hope it treats you well. But, again, there has to be a better place for this.

(+1)

Aren't you in the HH discord. Could talk to him there but idk how often he checks/responds there. It would make more sense if you were helping with HH development in some form, it sounds like you're soliciting another game

I have submitted ideas, but it sounds like Runey has a general idea of how the game should go. I added ideas to the Dev Diary #10 when we were asked to share ideas. And I did stress that Autumn and "Sleep in the MC's bed" at night and still not have sex. It would be a huge "I trust you" for MC to show Autumn that he won't do anything pervy. It also allows Autumn to say if she wants to take it further. Right now, I have a view for Harem Hotel, but it is at the moment with eyes that are looking for positives for every character. A great story has challenges for the main characters to overcome. Learning about everything that has happened in Harem Hotel and where the last update left off at had me feeling... well if you have played it then you know what I mean.

I do agree that not every character should be purely about sex, I like Autumn's character for that reason, shes the more innocent and wants to wait until its serious type which I'm all for, adds variety to the game and character personalities. I have played all of the latest update so I'm aware, that is usually my biggest disappointment are cliffhangers. I think Runey already has the entire plot panned out for the most part, but likes to hear input from the community to tweak things around here and there, so I also give my two cents from time to time.

We are currently accepting new volunteers on our translation teams. Specifically french, german, and russian. But all languages are accepted. Please send me a DM on discord if you're interested!

Where do I find the discord?

Scroll up! It's under the HAREM HOTEL banner/title, it reads DISCORD

Yeah, sorry, I found it like a minute after posting :D

I'm happy to help once I've moved. Will you still be needing any help translating in May? I'm a German native speaker holding an English degree.

Yes, a translation takes a very long time so the team will still need help.

Is there a proofreader in the team? The original English has typos. Some dialogues seem to me rather confusing, I find it hard to understand what is actually meant. So a native English speaker would be a welcome addition to the team to do the proofreading.

Maybe Renpy does not support proofreading well? I would assume translators would spot the typos and confusing text. When I have translated to my native language, I have given feedback to the original author for when I spot typos or find the text ambiguous or badly worded. It would help the translators if the original text is proofread before translation begins.

(1 edit)

you already have a portuguese-brazilian translation?

I have an question, sorry if I missed it somewhere in the game, but is Lin´s backstory gonna be continued? I know people love Ashley´s story and yes it actually is very touching but what about the other characters? Will they receive more (im talking hours of gameplay) screen time?, as always thank you for this making this game happen and im already very excited for the next updates to come, its like i dont want it to stop getting updates. thank you RuneyGames!!!

Yes! All main characters get at least 1 new story event every update unless something gets in the way of that. 

And thank you for playing :)

(+2)

Need more of Ashley's story in my life. I cried when she saw her younger self... Like I'm trying to be as non spoiler-y while conveying the part I mean... so if I fail then I am sorry for that... but like I don't know if it struck something in me or what, but I wanted to hug Ashley so bad...

(+3)

Thank you so much <3

(+2)

Yeah, her story hits hard. At first, she seems like the psycho girlfriend type....but as her story progresses...ouch.

Definitely. The growth of her character over the story just tops everything I've seen from visual novels. 

(+2)

I'm normally not one to comment on games, but the flag design is incredible. Fantastic work

(+1)

Thank you! Which one? The Syl'anar flag, or resistance flag?

(+2)

Both are great!

I have one question, is it possible to slightly improve the accessibility for the blind and partially sighted, as well as to improve the support for jaws and nvda screen readers?I have one question, is it possible to slightly improve the accessibility for the blind and partially sighted, as well as to improve the support for jaws and nvda screen readers?

(1 edit) (+1)

What kinds of improvements would be helpful?

Renpy already has a self voicing screen reader, I have mistakenly turned it on sometimes so it works. It is toggled from keyboard with the key “v”.

(+1)

It works correctly but it doesn't work everywhere, for example when we need to choose where we want to go and what to explore in the city, it reads some things and on most of them it is just silent, it is the same in the hotel when we want to choose where to go or when we are in a conversation with someone there is mostly no voice feedback from tts

one more question. is any of the pregnancy content in the game yet?

Read the answer to question by Supersim550 from yesterday.

Firstly, absolutely LOVE this game, no notes, keep up the amazing work. My main question is this:  I haven't played since I did most of the content for v0.15, and I'm interested in starting a new save with the updated content. However, it looks like v0.19 is on the horizon. Might it be worth it to wait for .19 release, or just start a new save now with .18 and update later? I'd hate to miss any new or updated early game content with the upcoming release. 

@runeygames ive been stuck. i have every other characters story finished(as well as side characters) but jin is stuck at 5/10 with an exclamation point next to her. what do i do to progress her story?

Have you entered the farm? Click the gate in the garden. Then upgrade the garden beds to the max.

i dont have the option to do that for some reason.

nvm we all good. i restarted the game and it fixed i\

Se puede jugar para iPhone? O se tiene que hacer lo mismo que para Android ?

(+1)(-2)

My understanding is this game does not work on an iPhone.

I may be wrong, I do not have an iPhone. I have a Linux computer for playing games.

It does work on MAC computer, there is a link with Apple logo for the download.

Can You get any of the girls pregnant yet?

(1 edit)

Not until the game is finished

May I know how long it's going to take?

(1 edit)

Harem Hotel is being actively written as you play. So it's impossible to know when the end will come. There is a direction and ending in mind, but everything in between is being written as you play it.

SPOILER!
.

To be honest, the pregnancy content would change the story Severily for most of the girls, Lin would have an Ilegal child and remember she is legaly a runaway, Ashley would have to get her shit together. Maria, no more super spy, Kali (Cant thing on negatives). Android (Already has a child, so it doesn't count.) Felicity and Emma. STONEFACE! Autumn, not before marriage(?)

Curious what that extra spare room in the hotel will be used for. Not that an extra guest is impossible to implement, but I have a feeling it wont be used for a new character

(+1)

The next main character will fill that room, and is being developed.

hi Runey i thought id ask do you think you would put this game on steam im sure it would be popular on there just thought id ask th

(+2)

You asked the same thing 2 years ago.

Runey then answered:

One day I hope to! But Harem Hotel has many problems in the earlier parts of the story, both from a visual and story writing perspective. (The biggest issues I see right now is all of android’s story up to around level 25, and all of the dungeon content aside from F&E’s)

Once everything is on the same level of quality and the game is polished a ton more with things like themed music, then I will consider putting it on steam. This will probably be around v0.20 if I had to guess, it’s a lot of work to remake everything. (This is about the 5th time I’m redoing stuff now for some things)

(+1)

My bad short memory tho thanks for the reply

Woah, v0.20? That's actually not too far off

(+1)

v0.20 for what?

v0.20 for what?

It was the 2 year old post about Steam release:

“then I will consider putting it on steam. This will probably be around v0.20 if I had to guess,”

It was this post: https://itch.io/post/6933815

I’m sorry for posting my wrong recollections about the Steam release plans.

For readers of this thread: the plan from 2023 may not be the plan anymore.

(1 edit) (+1)

Ah, yeah I still don't see Harem Hotel coming to steam soon. But we'll see.

On another note, my plans did change about a year and a half ago when my life became chaotic. I've just been trying to work whenever I can because I'm spread so thin. So some other things have had to be shelved.

Hello I'm sure the game is really good but I'm on mac. Does it still get updated on this operating system?

MAC version has up to now been released at the same time as all other versions. I see no reason why this would change.

Hi! I love this game. Will it be on steam in the future?

(1 edit)

Will it be on steam in the future?

From what I remember from old discussions, it is not planned to release on Steam.

Correction: I have since found this https://itch.io/post/6933815 two year old post where developer discusses Steam release

(+1)

Too bad, I would have been happy to buy it for my steam collection. Thanks for the reply.♥

You can buy it here on Itch or subscribe on Patreon.

Didn't you reference an old post Runey said about releasing it on steam around v0.20? I'm confused.

Didn’t you reference an old post Runey said about releasing it on steam around v0.20? I’m confused.

I found that post after I wrote “it is not planned to release on Steam”. That was my wrong impression of the plans.

I cant figure out how to use the game on joiplay, folloew the description but still can not figure it out head my head done in all night downloading deleting downloading lol on joiplay they is no plus symbol its just git save files which incant get past that point, on the other 1 is just dump files whillch none are playable

Harem Hotel v0.19 Beta Build 2 has released! Previews can be found here > https://runeygames.itch.io/harem-hotel/devlog/909848/harem-hotel-v019-preview

I'm excited and so happy for 0.19's progress. Here's to hoping things look a little brighter

Good visual novel but a bit off for me since the Player played more of "supporting role" than actually matters to the plot of the story itself which bugs me a lot. lol. The girls/protagonist stories & characteristics are great. Just wish the Player story/action could be well written rather than just an attractive sugar daddy/chauffeur

(1 edit) (+2)

I've recently begun making the player's character play a more active role in talking and action itself. This will also reflect in any events that are remade, which there is quite a bit left to remake.

Thanks for your feedback.
